    I've you're still looking for a desktop client, check out Sonixd. Also for both Subsonic and Jellyfin. Best I've found. It stores playlists in the backend and has MPRIS supporr.

    Glad you like Navidrome. This information is already in place, just not exposed in the UI. If you use a client that provides this info (Sonixd, Airsonic Refix, DSub, ...) You you see this. Ex: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/331353/212409922-ba5f589f-dadb-449f-a3e9-03065b8ba8e5.png

  • Looking for a good music playlist generator

    To summarise what we've gotten to so far: - Jellyfin web can do this using Instant Mix feature, but instant mix is at present pretty basic (see discussion here: https://www.reddit.com/r/jellyfin/comments/o0eic8/what_is_instant_mix_actually_based_on_also_is/). It won't work very well at the level of "Artist" but starting from a specific track or album produces a pretty good mix for some music in my library. Instant mixes can be saved as playlists. - Some Jellyfin apps can do this: especially symfonium (android) has advanced features for making mixes. The only limitation here seems to be saving playlists back to jellyfin server. And if you don't have an android phone and sonixd has a very limited ability to create a (completely, and imho unhelpfully) random playlist. - There are more convoluted solutions. Jellyfin users can try to use Subsonic clients with jellyfin by installing a server shim, but it seems this isn't being developed anymore and I wasn't able to get it running. It is also possible to use jellyfin as an MPD server, so more generic clients can be used here too.

    It won't be applicable to everyone, but I want to give a plug to Sonixd[1]: it's a Subsonic client, meaning that it'll work with Subsonic or any other music server that uses the Subsonic API (Navidrome, Airsonic, gonic).

    It's an Electron application, which won't be for anyone, but it's sufficiently smooth and snappy for me.
